Mountfield Group Plc (the "Company" or "the Group")

Half-yearly report to 30 June 2017

Mountfield Group Plc ("the Group"), the AIM listed commercial flooring and specialist construction services company announces its half-yearly report to 30 June 2017.

   --      Net profit before tax for the first half of 2017 was GBP305k (2016: GBP316k). 
   --      The Board expects a markedly improved performance from the Group for 2017 over 2016. 

-- Connaught Access Flooring Limited ("CAF" or "Connaught") has won over GBP6m worth of contracts since the beginning of 2017.

-- The Board anticipates that CAF is about to win another significant contract - one with an initial value of cGBP4m.

-- Mountfield Building Group Limited ("MBG") is in negotiation over a number of valuable opportunities and its performance in the second half of the year is expected to be substantially stronger.

Andy Collins - Group CEO said:

"The first half of 2017 saw exciting developments for both Companies.

CAF has successfully tendered for GBP6m of new business since 1 January 2017 and expects shortly to confirm the gaining of a new, substantial contract. Together, this demonstrates the progress it has made in establishing itself as one of the few top-tier commercial flooring suppliers and installers. It also underlines its status as one of the very few commercial flooring companies that major construction companies and developers will trust when choosing a specialist able to take on a complex and valuable project, and one that has the proven ability to produce a very high quality product within a tight time schedule.

This level of turnover (the aggregate won in the first six months is more than it has previously won in a twelve month period) will ensure a strong performance during the current year and provide it with a strong start for 2018.

With a number of exciting opportunities under negotiation with both existing and new clients, the Board expects MBG to perform strongly in the second half of the year in terms of the profitable delivery of current projects and in securing significant new ones for completion in 2018 in line with its recently adopted business criteria and strategy."

Chairman and CEO's Statement

The first half of 2017 saw the Group generate a net profit before tax of GBP305k a figure that was in line with that earned in the corresponding period of 2016 (GBP316k).

The Board is very pleased with the progress that the Group has made in the first half of 2017 and expects a stronger performance in the second half of the year over that achieved in 2016 and that, as a result, the full year figures will reflect a marked improvement compared with those for the 2016 financial year.

Connaught

CAF has had an extremely satisfactory first half and achievement is reflected in the net profit of GBP408k earned during the first half (2016: GBP397k) but more particularly in the new business it has acquired to be undertaken during 2017-8. The first three of these contracts had already been announced and of them, two were separate contract stages in respect of a single property that were announced on 7 March 2017 (value of GBP1.2m) and on 29 August 2017 with a value of GBP1.5m to be undertaken in the 12 months from October 2017. In addition, the Company was awarded a contract valued at GBP2.5m (announced on 7 March 2017) for completion during 2017.

In addition to these contracts, the Board is confident that CAF is about to be awarded a particularly significant contract - one with an initial value of circa GBP4m - to supply and install flooring at another major office development in the City of London.

The Board expects that the Company's successes in 2017 are unlikely to be limited to these contracts. The market remains strong in terms of tender activity and CAF expects to secure additional works including some to be undertaken in 2018.

MBG

MBG's levels of activity and involvement in tendering and contract negotiations in the first half of the year were not reflected in its performance and in particular in the net profit of GBP44k (2016: GBP71k). The announcement on 6 September of it having won contracts for a single client with an aggregate value of approximately GBP750k and another where the client has provided MBG with a letter of intent enabling it to procure essential materials in advance of the commencement of a contract with a value in excess of GBP1m. These contracts are expected by the Board to be followed by a series of other contract wins during the remaining months of 2017.

The Board anticipates the Group performing well in the second half of the year and also CAF and MBG securing further business that will ensure a strong backbone for 2018.

   1.     Notes to the Interim Report 

Basis of preparation

The Group's interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2017 were authorised for issue by the directors on 12 September 2017.

The consolidated interim financial statements, which are unaudited, do not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning

of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2016 have been filed with

the Registrar of Companies at Companies House. The audit report on the statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December

2016 was unqualified and did not contain any statements under Section 498 (2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

The annual financial statements of Mountfield Group Plc for the year ended 31 December 2017 will be prepared in accordance

with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted for use in the EU ("IFRS"). Accordingly, these interim financial

statements have been prepared using accounting policies consistent with those which will be adopted by the Group in the

financial statements and in compliance with IAS 34 "Interim financial reporting".

The consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the

annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016.

Basis of consolidation

The Group financial information consolidates that of the company and its subsidiaries.

All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.

   2.     Segmental reporting 

Segment information is presented in respect of the Group's business segments, which are based on the Group's management

and internal reporting structure.

The chief operating decision-maker has been identified as the Board of Directors (the Board). The Board reviews the Group's internal reporting in order to assess performance and allocate resources. Management have determined the operating segments based on these reports and on the internal report's structure.

Segment performance is evaluated by the Board based on revenue and profit before tax ("PBT"). Segment results include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis, such as centrally managed costs relating to individual segments and costs relating to land used in more than one individual segment.

Given that income taxes and certain corporate costs are managed on a centralised basis, these items are not allocated between operating segments for the purposes of the information presented to the Board and are accordingly omitted from the analysis below.

The Group comprises the following segments:

Mountfield

Direct contracting and trade contracting services to both main contractors and corporate end users.

Connaught

Providing raised flooring systems to both main contractors and corporate end users.

   4.           Earnings per share 

The basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average

number of shares in issue. In calculating the diluted earnings per share, share options outstanding have been taken into account

where the impact of these is dilutive.

The weighted average number of shares in the period was:

 
                                   6 months      6 months       12 months

In the six months to 30 June 2017, the exercise price of the options and warrants exceeded the average market price of ordinary shares in the period, thus there is no dilutive effect on the weighted average number of ordinary shares or the diluted earnings per

share.
